Layne with supergroup Mad Season singing about his own inevitable demise on 'River of Deceit'.
"My pain is self chosen..."
Mad Season and Temple of the Dog were both one off recordings but also 2 of the best albums to ever grace the grunge/metal scene.
Temple of the Dog was put together by Chris Cornell of Soundgarden/Audioslave for his friend and singer Andrew Wood of Mother Love Bone who had died from being given a drug overdose the night before their debut album was due to be released. From these recordings Pearl Jam was born.
